Ceremony — Artist Talk: Sarah Finkle and Solveig Pálsdóttir
Welcome to an artist talk with Sarah Finkle and Solveigu Pálsdóttir, where they discuss the works they are showing at the graduation exhibition of master's students in art, their background and context. The event is the first in a series of conversations where the graduating group discusses their work and process, see the program below.
Ceremony is the title of this years IUA’s MA Fine Art Degree Exhibition. Through their works the graduating artists strive to stretch the boundaries a little further: the boundaries of behavior, personal space, experience and emotions. Boundaries of care, assigned roles and the coexistence of man and nature. The limits of how far we can think beyond time and within ourselves. The artists draw on threads from recent solo exhibitions that take on new forms in a different context.
Sarah Finkle (b. 1989) is a New York City based fiber artist. She received her bachelor's degree in studio art at Skidmore college, with a concentration in textiles and sculpture and is currently in the Fine Arts Masters program at Listaháskoli Ísland. Along with exhibiting her works within New York City, Iceland and abroad, she has further explored textiles within scenic design, creating interactive fiber installations for theater and dance productions. Her work is a continuous search of space, of material, of the body. How our bodies feel, react, and engage with space and the ongoing challenge to make these feelings tangible.
The artist Solveig Pálsdóttir graduated with a B.A in Fine arts from LHÍ in 2009. Since she has been active in different forms of creative outputs, from running exhibit spaces to commercial art galleries and creating music for herself and album covers for others. Her art known for its overflowing lines, describing her inner landscape or perception of the outer world. You can find her work in Myrkraverk Gallery on Skólavörðustígur 3.
